Nature & Us In ancient times man was completely at the mercy of nature. Sometimes nature was extremely harsh on him, but at the same time it also took care of him by providing him with all the resources that he needed to survive. It provided him with all the foods and medicines for him to stay healthy and active. In due course, man prospered and developed in every way possible – intellectually, financially and physically. Slowly and surely man started drifting away from his roots and today things have come to such a head that he has almost forgotten where his roots are. He has begun considering himself as the Supreme Being who can control everything. In his pursuit of material possessions, he has become blind to the fact that nature has its own way of striking back. And when it does, all his acquired power will not be able to save him, as we have seen so many times in the past. So, why not try to reconnect with our roots? Why not try some simple and natural home remedies whenever you are down with some common ailment, instead of running to the doctor? I have developed an e-book on such remedies with painstaking effort, for you to go through. It shall be your asset throughout life.
